Distinguished Microwave Lectures: An Enriching Experience for MTT-S Members and Speakers [Women in Microwaves]

Abstract

IEEE offers a Distinguished Lecturers Program, allowing Chapters to host distinguished lecturers who are excellent speakers and experts in their respective topical fields. Within the IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society (MTT-S), this program is renamed the Distinguished Microwave Lecturers (DMLs) Program. In the summer of 2022, the MTT-S announced the DML class for 20232025. We observed that this was the 10th all-male class since 2009. In fact, there have been only five female DMLs since the 2009 class, including the present two female DMLs. A major reason is the lack of nominations of female candidates. The same observation is valid in terms of geographical diversity. Therefore, this column elaborates on the nomination process and shares the experiences of female DMLs.
